A Love Supreme Live
at Kuumbwa Jazz Center is now available!

John Hanrahan’s Love Supreme Quartet has been performing together in Chicago and around the globe for over 20 years. This accomplished ensemble performs A Love Supreme  in an effort to share Coltrane’s passion for jazz, spirit, and the love of live performance.

Considered to be the defining jazz recording of all time, John Coltrane and his equally innovative quartet (McCoy Tyner, Jimmy Garrison, Elvin Jones) recorded the album A Love Supreme in 1964 on Impulse Records. Hanrahan’s quartet performs the full suite in celebration of Coltrane’s significant landmark recording.
